Who makes the calls on his car? Is he his own Sammy Swindell calling all the shots? If so, is that why he is usually lack luster in practice, qualifying, and some heats? Only to nail the setup come feature time? Because he does this a lot.
Hes one of my favorites. Im 6'2 290 pounds and often get confused as a crew member or late model driver. I love watching bigger guys win in a sport that is so weight conscious.

I just watched the highlights of the summer nationals. It looked extremely fast and the top three cars look like they were about 20% Beyond the Edge of out of control. Cars look like they were above the surface floating to me. Must have been exciting to watch live.
Even though I may not know you, I
care what most of you think!

I am a big fan as well. I'm 6 foot 5 and 245 and work as a Biomed, which is what Bent was in his former life. Seems as if he is also a very nice person and is very grateful for his success. Hope he continues to do well.

When Bruce Ellis asked him what his plans were- keep doing what he was doing or go back with the Outlaws, what was his answer? I could hear Bruce but not Brent.

If you're talking about Victory Lane, he never asked that. He asked if Brent's win was unaffiliated or if it was a Posse win, and all Brent said was that the Outlaws were 4-0 and that they broke the streak, so he guess it's Posse.

I believe Brent has talked about his desire to take the 19 team back on the WoO tour eventually.

Guess I couldn't hear Bruce very good either 
It's more than 4-0 isn't it? I thought someone said it was 700 some days since the last PA guy won.

I think May 2019 was the last Posse win.

It was 4-0 on the year up to that point. Sweet at Lincoln; Macedo, Reutzel, and Sheldon at Williams Grove
Lance Dewease took the feature in the finale of the 2019 Morgan Cup, being the Posse's last win (although some wanted to claim Marks' National Open victory as well.)

We don't let go of them. Stevie Smith might have had a Broken Arrow, OK mailbox in the last few years but he will forever be from New Oxford, PA. We'll even claim the vice versa - like a guy from Sioux Falls - as long as they're in a PA car.

True, and using that same reasoning, outlaw fans can claim anyone that ever ran full-time with the World of Outlaws including Brent Marks, Lucas Wolfe, and a host of other Pennsylvania drivers.
